What made you want to dance at the University of Minnesota? I wanted to be part of a large University and dancing is what I have loved to do since I was little.
When/where did you first start dancing? I started dancing at the age of three at the Dance Shoppe.
What's something that most people don't know about you? When I was a young child I would get fevers that ran around 105 degrees, so I had to get tested for cancer.  The doctors told me that one day I would grow out of it, and I DID!
What non-dance accomplishment are you most proud of?I have been able to successfully manage the workload of a student athlete at a Big 10 University.
What do you like to do when you aren't dancing? When I'm not dancing, I like to spend time with my friends!
What is your favorite memory with this team? My favorite memory on this team has been winning nationals two years in a row with my closest friends.
Do you have any tips for high school dancers who want to continue on in college? Continue to believe in yourself and commit to every move you are given!
